    If I were him I'd be trying to jump ship. It was one thing when we had a veteran team with a shot at the playoffs, but why would he want to play on a rebuilding team?

    Meh, he could have signed with the Bulls, or another team, and chose to come here. He knew we weren't nearly as close as the Bulls. I don't feel too bad for guys when a situation changes, when they were motivated primarily by money.

    The money ain't so bad - and it's not like Kurt Thomas hasn't spent time on a losing team before.

    Thomas has played for six teams in six seasons now... I'm not shocked to see he's uncertain about his future with any given team.

    We already have the influence for Leonard in Kurt. So go ahead and sign McGee.

    Also, how about Thomas' short twin Craig Smith? With so much skinny youth, we need the muscle of Rhino and Kurt.
